What is their stance on cops killing unarmed people [of any ethnicity] and then the entire criminal system LYING to cover up and protect the police?
[Was that "pigs in a blanket" line the offending chant?]
If that person is a moralizing, family values" hypocrite...
I don't think there would be a call to let it slide.
"Police...have not explained why they don't yet have statements from the officers."
I have a good idea why they don't have the officers' statements yet.
If they added gasoline to the burning home?
Officials lying, prosecutors advocating for the accused cops, ignoring video evidence, and so much more.
Have whites been SYSTEMATICALLY targeted because of the color of their skin?
Any death can be tragic, but, these days, police killing of whites is spillover of policing agents enforcing segregationist policies. The focus has broadened to include the poor in general and has become rather random.
But the modern stem is violence against blacks; whites have become collateral damage. When the policing of blacks becomes more civil, the policing of whites will follow that trend. The emphasis by some posters on this site on white police victims is myopic and telling.
The exception: It is being reported.

A search and some reading that you can do for yourself:
http://www.google.com/search?q=record+of+cops+killed+by+civilians&oq=record+of+cops+killed+by+civilians&gs_l=mobile-heirloom-serp.3...0.0.1.81497.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0..0.0....0...1c..34.mobile-heirloom-serp..17.22.2626.ndXzXXtq1Wo
You could read some of that. You might find it enlightening.
Or not.
You could also step back and reflect on the black civil rights struggle and how blacks AND WHITES and others were systematically targeted by WHITE police and other agents; attacked to enforce laws intended to segregate whites from the other races through MURDER.
And now people want to point out that whites are being targeted, too. Whites are not being targeted; it's the spillover of a police system that has gotten way out of control.
